Yes, I remember waiting and waiting for the fuel level to increase. The "3-d space rotating starmap" was everything but 3-d and it was really lame.

Too bad. It could have been a great game.

Know what, guys? I volunteered to write a review for Abandonia (not A. Reloaded, just A.) and I chose Star Control 3. So if everything goes smooth it should be uploaded there shortly hereafter.

After having actually played SC3, I just think it sucks, stinks and does many other unpleasant things I won't bother you with (my review is far more polite than these words, too so I think). It's not just that it's unworthy of the saga, it's a bad game all on its own. Of course this is a personal opinion, LOL many disagree--but many more agree. (I've read a really cruel review but I won't link it here because it might be against the forum rules.) However, my complaints are well detailed and reasoned in my lengthy review, so feel free to check it out as soon as it's uploaded. :angel: Please.

I still think that, now that SC2 is open, some freelance developer should do as if SC3 didn't exist (definitely), and create a sequel more or less like Reiche and Ford would have done it.

Well, don't be too harsh, the game has it's values.

Well, now I go to play Master of Orion 2 and forget of Star Control Universe....

We (I) want us to do a Star Control sequel. [...] But maybe, just maybe, if enough of you people out there send me emails requesting that Toys For Bob do a legitimate sequel to Star Control 2, I'll be able to show them to Activision, along with a loaded handgun, and they will finally be convinced to roll the dice on this thing.
What are you waiting for!? Mail this guy! Spam him! Nail him to the ground with mails! :angel:

Tanaka, I just have to agree with you. SC3 was total failure, IMO. If somebody liked, good for him/her, but I didn't. And I think your idea of redoing it as it never existed is good. Well, we can only hope and wait and see.

This game is close to going 1.0 now. They only need nameable saves and more elegant code according to their web page.
